algebra.category.Mon.filtered_colimits

The forgetful functor from (commutative) (additive) monoids preserves filtered colimits. #

Forgetful functors from algebraic categories usually don't preserve colimits. However, they tend to preserve filtered colimits.

In this file, we start with a small filtered category J and a functor F : J ⥤ Mon. We then construct a monoid structure on the colimit of F ⋙ forget Mon (in Type), thereby showing that the forgetful functor forget Mon preserves filtered colimits. Similarly for AddMon, CommMon and AddCommMon.

As J is nonempty, we can pick an arbitrary object j₀ : J. We use this object to define the "one" in the colimit as the equivalence class of ⟨j₀, 1 : F.obj j₀⟩.

As J is nonempty, we can pick an arbitrary object j₀ : J. We use this object to define the "zero" in the colimit as the equivalence class of ⟨j₀, 0 : F.obj j₀⟩.

Equations

The definition of the "zero" in the colimit is independent of the chosen object of J. In particular, this lemma allows us to "unfold" the definition of colimit_zero at a custom chosen object j.

The definition of the "one" in the colimit is independent of the chosen object of J. In particular, this lemma allows us to "unfold" the definition of colimit_one at a custom chosen object j.

The "unlifted" version of addition in the colimit. To add two dependent pairs ⟨j₁, x⟩ and ⟨j₂, y⟩, we pass to a common successor of j₁ and j₂ (given by is_filtered.max) and add them there.

Addition in the colimit is independent of the chosen "maximum" in the filtered category. In particular, this lemma allows us to "unfold" the definition of the addition of x and y, using a custom object k and morphisms f : x.1 ⟶ k and g : y.1 ⟶ k.

The monoid homomorphism from a given monoid in the diagram to the colimit monoid.

Equations

Given a cocone t of F, the induced monoid homomorphism from the colimit to the cocone point. As a function, this is simply given by the induced map of the corresponding cocone in Type. The only thing left to see is that it is a monoid homomorphism.
